ISSUES

• Grizopoulous said the Maxess Road and Corporate Center Drive area of Melville should be redeveloped, but it must be done in a way that does not negatively impact the school district and protects the area’s home values. He prefers single-family homes over high-density apartments.
• He wants to “enhance public safety” by working with the police precinct to make sure certain areas, including by Maxess Road, see enforcement, as he said he is concerned that if left unchecked it will help increase quality-of-life offenses.
• Grizopoulos does not want taxes to go up, and “what we’re already paying, we’re getting good services from the town.”
